People who were teenagers before social media existed… how did you communicate with your friends?

I grew up in the UK. So, with English mostly.

@InsideLucysHead Mother Teresa was a horrible person who should never have been canonised

A man dies and goes to heaven... In heaven, he sees a wall of very large clocks. He asks the Angel, "What are all these clocks for?" Angel answers, "These are lie clocks, every person has one lie clock. Whenever you lie on earth, the clock ticks once." The man points towards a clock and asks, "Whose clock does this belong to?" Angel answers, 'This clock belongs to Mother Teresa. It has never moved, so she has never told a lie." Then the man asks, "Where is Keir Starmer's clock?" The Angel replies, "That one is in our office; we use it as a table fan."

@TisMeThomas2T @Jeebly_Natalie More than half of those listed as nice aren't from the US?

@Jeebly_Natalie Spot the pattern...

Celebrities You Didn't Know Are Nice vs Rude😔🙄

@Tamtia31 @jomickane Same

@jomickane I went to catholic primary school from 1985-1990. My kids have been in catholic primary school since 2009 last child currently year 5. This has never been a thing.

I bet there arent many schools in the UK that still do this, so sad 😒

@languagetalk @jomickane I'm Catholic and went to Catholic schools, personally I've never seen such a thing here.

@jomickane This is more likely to be done in Catholic schools. What we don't have as much any more are Easter bonnet competitions and parades, egg decorating, etc.

@Tinebobagain Ethnically I'm mostly Irish (which isn't British despite you listing it as such). So if you're saying someone who is ethnically 50% English can only say they're half British, then my Mum for example should tell people she is only 99%? We can only be sure once our DNA is tested?

@probably_cb Yes. It’s not difficult to understand. Did you think people could just be whatever ethnicity they want to be? There’s no shame in not being British. It is what it is. I bet you think a man can be a woman too, don’t you?

That’s is correct. To be British you have to be ethnically English, Welsh, Scottish or Irish. Being born somewhere doesn’t change your ethnicity, neither does being handed a piece of paper. Have you had a DnA test or do you already know?

@Tinebobagain Dumdum? Are you a juvenile? So in your opinion you have to be purely ethnically English, Welsh etc. To be British? Or get tested and list our nationality as genetic percentages? Meanwhile an estimated 40% of Brits have foreign DNA.

@probably_cb Yes you do. If you are half black you are not fully British, are you dumdum?

@Tinebobagain Therefore you don't have to white to be British then 🫡

@probably_cb They are half then, aren’t they? 🙄

@Detricraft @TheHughAnthony The mask in your profile pic depicts a catholic monarchist

@TheHughAnthony Lord Protector required. Cromwell rises.

Reminder, the Queen sat and watched Britain be given away. She had the power to stop it and did nothing. She was as much as a traitor as Charles. The Monarchy died decades ago.

@RohanNeon @ThomasWatsonCD @grok Zero money goes to the Royal family. Canadian's specifically fund their governer generals office.

@ThomasWatsonCD No way, is that actually true. @grok

The monarchy costs us about $1.55 to $1.68 per Canadian per year. Excellent value for money.

@brentleeboyd @ThomasWatsonCD You don't pay anything to the King, you fund your governer general's office, I'm not canadian and even I know that.

@ThomasWatsonCD The man who owns the 2nd largest nation on earth and the entire coastline of Britain, et al.... needs my $1.55?

@Randd0 @Simon_Ingari And that job description usually includes "Any other ad hoc duties as required by management"

@Simon_Ingari 👎Confirmation that these expectations align with my official job description, dated (insert date) Employees that use their job description as a crutch ALWAYS turn out to be underperformers. You should seek to expand the ways you can impact the business & help your company win.

If they put you on a PIP, send this email within 24 hours:

@Simon_Ingari 1. Already outlined on the PIP 2. Already outlined on the PIP 3. Already outlined on the PIP 4. Already outlined on the PIP If someone sent me the above I'd assume that they're an idiot who has already forgotten our entire conversation and can't read their own PIP paperwork

The moment you're put on a performance improvement plan, most people panic. Try not to do that, and instead, send this email: Subject : PIP Acknowledgment and Request for Clarification Thank you for meeting with me today regarding the performance improvement plan. To ensure that I fully understand the expectations, I’m requesting written clarification on the following information: 1. Specific, measurable metrics for success during this period. 2. A timeline and the frequency of feedback meetings. 3. The resources or support that will be provided to help me succeed. 4. Confirmation that these expectations align with my official job description, dated (insert date). I’m committed to meeting these goals, and I want to ensure we have a clear, documented understanding. Please provide this information in writing within 48 hours so I can begin immediately. Thank you.

@chinglan3000 @Heal_within96 What view? Are you saying that those signs were regulary posted? Your pic is fake, there is one single documented photo of such a sign, the photo below produced in the 80s posted at a BB with an unknown origin. There were cases of horrible discrimination but the signs are a myth

@Heal_within96 I agree to an extent, but the Africans and the Caribbeans (Windrush Generation) that were invited to UK to help build their NHS and other industries might have a slightly different view considering what they were told when they got here;- NO BLACKS - NO DOGS - NO IRISH

Native British people were asked in 1966 if Black Police Officers should exist and to my surprise, they gave mixed views. British people have always been welcoming immigrants.

@SciFi93181702 @smile2jannah Your comment is confusing? If you say 'peace be upon him' I assume that you may be muslim, however muslims don't believe that Jesus was killed, so are you a heretic or an uneducated christian?

@smile2jannah Guessing they were not allowed to say who killed Jesus, peace be upon him, because the police might arrest them. x.com/i/status/20399…

@ScreamnKanenite @rent_hero @I_amMukhtar Yeah his mother is Japanese

@rent_hero @I_amMukhtar Oh, so he's not black. He's mixed. Wonder why Mukhtar put he was black 🤔 If he has the blood, he has the blood. Fair enough. Appearance is not the sole determiner.

The people who say that you can't be Black Japanese are going to be mad. Japan's goalkeeper is Black.

@aaronyarm @antisemitism She's been charged for both, multiple counts of supporting a proscribed terrorist organisation and two counts of inciting racial hatred

@antisemitism it is curious that she was charged with support for Hamas and not a race crime as most of her posts are about "jewish supremacy".

Notorious suspended NHS doctor Rahmeh Aladwan has reportedly been charged with ”multiple counts of inviting support for Hamas and other offences”. According to the Metropolitan Police, Dr Aladwan was arrested for the fifth time today for breaching police bail conditions which were imposed following her previous arrests. After a public outcry, and a threat of legal action from CAA, in September 2025 when the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service declined to suspend her while under investigation by the GMC, a new hearing was held two months later, at which she was suspended for fifteen months. Like so many other investigations, it is still ongoing even after so many months. It is therefore encouraging to see the authorities finally taking some real action after so many arrests and a campaign of anti-Jewish incitement by Dr Aladwan.
